Happy 17th Birthday, Nick!! You’re the boy who stole my heart the day you came into our world on that sunny, beautiful morning. Continue to shine bright like the diamond you are, keep setting the world on fire, and never give up on all your magnificent goals in life. If I never lived another day on this earth, I have lived all my dreams and felt so much happiness, love, and laughter through you, Noah & Daddy that my life would be enough. We love you so much, Nick. This is one of my favorite pics of you. You are so proud here. And we are so proud of you. You have outgrown my lap, but never ever ever my heart…. ~ momma
